Leftovers

Leftovers

Look,
I am broken
come
now and feed
off
what they
have left of me ..
Spent
and likewise
discarded,
I hold nothing
but
the truth ..
Feel free to
serve
me up beside
a side dish
of your
own choosing
and
then lavishly
dressed
in contempt ..

Ohh Nevile such a lot of emotion in this. I imagine a bitter soul...staring into futility, whisky glass in hand...oh no...that's me in the mirror ...still, I daresay I'm not alone X
